    I can't tell if your kidding or what….
    Is there such a virus that has affected Apples?

    I'm looking it up now, but if you could give me any more info about it.

    Just kidding, I didn't think you would fall for the hyroglyptical glitch virus routine! Sorry for any inconvenience. Sounds pretty serious.

    Yes, using Safari.

    In this reply mode, the last example I gave in post #1 , is displaying the black triangles.

    But when I open a new window, and just read that thread/post…it shows the stray characters instead of the black diamonds. it�

    OK, back up, we found some evidence of a virus, used MacKeeper to sweep everything, installed antivirus, removed virus.

    Now typing the 3 periods "…" to see if they still display weird characters…

    Dang! Do you see those question marks after the word OK, and now"? that's not me putting them there.
